DevOps Automation Script
Summary
This is a Claude Code prompt designed to automate the secure setup of an Ubuntu 24.04 VPS on Hetzner. It guides the AI to interactively collect user credentials and then execute a series of shell commands to harden the system, including SSH configuration, firewall rules, and optional Tailscale integration.
Highlights
- Automates initial server hardening for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on Hetzner infrastructure.
- Enforces strict SSH security by disabling root login, password auth, and restricting access to a single user.
- Integrates fail2ban and UFW firewall to protect against brute-force attacks.
- Offers optional Tailscale VPN setup for secure private network access from mobile devices.
- Uses an interactive prompt structure where Claude Code asks for username, SSH key, and Tailscale preference before execution.
